I've heard him mention it in passing, but I wonder how much of the little ticket was built around the dead Dallas radio icon KZEW? Hmmm Now that I think about it Walter from Waco and Skip are very similar thinkers.

Bob and Dan didn't fall for it and were able to reach an acceptable agreement lower than they wanted but not as low as Cumulus offered. That said, I'm glad BaD is still on The Ticket. They are my favorite show in the metroplex. 14 years of continuity with KTCK; very impressive. What Mike Rhyner put together all those years ago is extraordinary. The industry in this area will be talking about what he did 50 years from now. His only misstep was Skip Bayless but we hardly remember that now.

After all he is a egotistical, shallow, douce bag. But I do enjoy some alot of his post and do always check the sportatorium. <br /><br />That being said,Richie does not deserve the kicking this time. His only mistake was being so concieted that he actually thought that no one else had access to this info. But other than that his report was correct.<br /><br />By the way some people I know connected to the situation said the Fan did actually offer more money, but not enough to make Bob and Dan think it was worth leaving the Ticket.<br /><br />Blood MonkeyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6769468336490808451.post-56821023909352090812013-06-24T11:40:30.670-05:002013-06-24T11:40:30.670-05:00Yet you post as "Anonymous" with a twitt...Yet you post as "Anonymous" with a twitter handle known as "Geek Slinger" with 99 followers.

If Cumulus opened up their wallet, the decision to stay would be NO-BRAINER.<br /><br />If that was the case, I find Bob's 'Man in the Glass' and 'in the end, we just can't leave you or our brothers' tweets pretty disingenuous. There is NO SHAME in using leverage to get more money, but don't play your fans out for suckers by implying that it was an angst filled sacrifice to come back, but you did it for the fans and your coworkers.<br /><br />It's no different than the pro athlete who uses an offer from another team as contract leverage and decides to stay when ownership matches - then goes in front of the cameras saying how they couldn't leave their teammates or fans. Don't pretend it wasn't about the money, when that's what drove the whole episode.<br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6769468336490808451.post-10620451962174991612013-06-24T01:28:45.026-05:002013-06-24T01:28:45.026-05:00Sorry Richie but the tease bit you in the ass.
